A Gorgeous Weekend Followed by a Batch of Clouds and Rain Chances for the Week

I hope you all are having a good weekend so far! There’s plenty of sun to go around and the temperatures are quite pleasant after yesterday’s blustery cold front blew through most of the day.

With the cold front moving further to the Atlantic, we’ll see some calm before we go back into a slightly warmer pattern with a surface ridge in the Gulf of Mexico pushing more of that warmer, humid air we all know and love.

However as we get towards the weekend, a low pressure system will push from the Western US bringing in higher rain chances which may bleed into Saturday and Sunday.

As we can see a bit of amplitude in the atmosphere at the mid-levels, look west and you’ll see a disturbance coming over the Rockies headed our direction next weekend. Image courtesy of Pivotal Weather.

Overall, this weekend will be great for being outside! Next week will be more warm and humid with a few scattered rain chances until we get into the weekend.
